I have happened onto a second Johnson Valiant I transmitter, a
factory-wired model. If I did not have another V-1 in comparable condition (mine has all the ER audio mods), this one would be an absolute keeper. No mods done other then the one that accommodates the EFJ SSB adaptor. Front panel is in excellent condition. The inside top chassis is clean and absolutely no signs of rust or corrosion on the iron. The underside is a joy to behold. It looks like out-of-the-box, literally! I have begun to replace the electrolytics and may proceed with the important VFO screen resistor mod. If there's someone in the mid-Atlantic area looking for a truly excellent, collector-quality Valiant, this one is it. I'm asking $300 as it now stands (although the caps will have been changed out, and the rig already has some 3B28's in it). With the VFO mod gets done, it'll be a bit more. I have all the requisite books and the SSB Mod sheets. No shipping* as I'd like anyone to see it first. Be happy to meet anyone an hour or so distant from the mid-Maryland/DC area. I do not believe that you will not find a nicer Valiant....anywhere! JPEGs available. *Valiants don't take to shipping, anyway, and I simply won't risk the ride... 73 de Jeep/K3HVG |
